If you do, please post a picture. Sequencer-art is cool ;-)

The only HW sequencers I've used before my P3 are X0X style Rolands and
Korgs. But I always lusted for one of those really old-fashioned machines
with knobs, so there you go.
Although I don't think the P3 is extremely intuitive, I was able to find out
the basic stuff without the manual in about 3 hours of jamming with it
connected to Reaktor on a Mac ti-book.
I needed the manual on how to assign controller numbers to the pots, though.

Yeah, cool colour. I think I have one or two on my P3 as well ("The Big
One").
